THE body of a Foxton woman whose daughter plunged more than 30ft from a hotel room balcony in Majorca has been found.
Sara Cooper, 45, was discovered by divers yesterday afternoon (Wednesday) in an underwater cave.
Her fully-clothed body was recovered from the cave, which is beneath a cliff at Calas Domingos beach, just a few minutes walk from the hotel the family were staying at.
Seven-year-old Gianna Cooper, who attends Foxton Primary School, fell from the fifth floor of the three-star Hotel Samoa in the resort of Calas de Mallorca.
She suffered a ruptured liver, broken jaw and head injuries, and is currently in a serious but stable condition at a hospital in the island's capital, Palma.
Her father Martin and two older brothers are by her bedside.
